We usually have one pizza night and order a whole pizza so it will be fresh and hot. There was always a long line but one night we decided we would just wait. We did wait 20 minutes to order.Then we waited another 15 minutes to get the pizza. I could tell by looking at the way it looked as the guy was cutting the slices of the pizzas before ours that they looked like the crust was doughy. We still waited. When our pizza was ready(?), he could not get it out of the pan and he put it back in the oven, twice for 30 seconds or so. He finally got it out of the pan and sliced it in to pieces that I knew by the look would be doughy...and they were...we could not eat them and left the whole thing.

 

All I can say is good luck. We had multiple issues with having something decent to eat on this ship. I am thinking it must have been a new crew?

 

I am not a foodie and don't care so much about the food, but I did have a problem on this cruise finding something edible. Normally I gain 4 pounds each cruise but I lost and so did DH on this one. Since I am not a foodie and was happy to lose the two pounds, I am okay. Once I found out where they kept the pancakes and french toast for breakfast, I just had a big breakfast and ate at the pasta bar or deli for a late lunch and just did not eat dinner. :)

We were on the inaugural Nov 14 , and I asked some crew members about various things and most of them told me they were new. One even said I am as lost as you are. The ship is actually easy to navigate, but as above poster said, there were food issues.

Not sure about the Magic but on the Ecstasy and the Conquest but we thought the pizza tasted the same on both and we loved the margherita pizza. Its not NY pizza but we thought it was comparable to what you'd find at any chain. Our DD ate it every night on one of our 7 day cruises.

Yes, and that is why we always have a pizza night...but OP was asking about the Magic. If it had been any of the other carnival ships I have been on I would have said if was great if you order a whole pizza and get it fresh.

We sailed the Magic in Europe, and I thought the pizza was great. Of course it cannot compare with NY pizza, but you aren't in NYC....you are on a cruise ship!!:) Usually fresh and hot......goat cheese was really good, as was the margarita. Caesar salad is always good....and yes you can get it 24 hrs a day!!!

I realize that - and that is why I said it tasted the same on both ships I've been on meaning it's probably the same on the Magic. Jeez lady.

I didn't mean to imply anything. I did not mean to offend you. I actually said it was good on all the other ships(over 10 cruises with carnival and 6 more booked):)

I almost skipped this thread but I'm glad I read it. I did not know there is Caesar Salad available around the clock. I did not know that the garlic bread is good. Thank you for the information.

 

And you can get grilled chicken on the salad.

It is free (relatively speaking) and available 24/7. How bad can it be? My son loves the calzones- especially at about 3am.

 

This! The Chevre and mushroom pizza is nothing short of a small slice of heaven after closing down the casino. There is also usually some excellent people watching at the pizza place around this time ;)

How good is the Pizza on the Magic? Can you really get what you want on it 24hours a day no questions asked.

 

If you ask for sliced human tongue, they might ask questions......
